Oddly I think I saw a monk today.

Purchased, thank you!

Our primary was Priests who were monks, wasn’t really prepared for the range of nun madness.

I never came across a monk during my Convent years but I now live very close to a silent order and often see the monks out on their daily constitutionals.

When we can we visit an island off Pembrokeshire coast that has a silent order - I'm pretty sure they are. I like going there, it's peaceful, but I've read that they have had gits taking up the order that are child abusers.

It still shocks me to read of the Magdalene sisters. So much pain and hurt from religion.

I will never get over this. Such compassion, love and godliness

Used to love a holy day of obligation though. A day off when you were supposed to go to multiple masses at your own church but we used to go shopping and try on all clothes in Top Shop

Oh yes!!

I used to disappear down the stables or to Brighton

On topic, reading a book by a Carmelite nun who left. Kinda fascinating.
